Terrifying Power

"Jiraiya- sensei, if you can't stop me, then I'll take the victory of this match!"

Xuan Ye watched as the crescent-shaped slash created by Wind Release: Death Cut rapidly approached Jiraiya's position at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye.

In the distance, Jiraiya continued to observe his surroundings, watching for any movement. For some reason, he felt a vague tightness in his chest, as if something bad was about to happen.

As this feeling arose, Jiraiya's vigilance intensified. He focused intently on his surroundings, ready to retaliate at the slightest disturbance.

Suddenly, Jiraiya's eyes widened instantly. He realized that something was hurtling towards him at lightning speed, extremely dangerous, so dangerous that it seemed his life would be in danger if it hit him.

"What is it? What exactly is it? Could it be a ninjutsu that Xiao Ye used?"

Jiraiya was extremely confused. He stared at the spot that made him feel a sense of danger, and instantly began to Hand Seals, while the chakra within his body began to circulate wildly.

"Escape? There's no chance to avoid that thing that makes me feel dangerous. It's too fast, and it seems to have locked onto me. I can't escape now."

Besides, even if Jiraiya wanted to dodge now, there wasn't enough time. If he dodged now, he would expose his weakness to danger, something Jiraiya would never do.

"Earth Release - Earth Current Wall!"

In an instant, Jiraiya created several layers of earthen walls in front of him to defend against the crisis.

However, this time he did not stop there, because he felt that if he only did that, he would not be able to stop the thing in front of him that made him feel threatened, and he had to strengthen his defense.

Jiraiya began Hand Seals again, this time using the Shadow Clone Jutsu to create two Shadow Clones of himself.

Shadow Clone also wanted to use ninjutsu to defend against the impending crisis, Jiraiya he could see just how powerful this ninjutsu really was.

"Whoosh!"

Wind Release: Death Slash. Its movement speed increased wildly with the distance it traveled, and in an instant, the crescent-shaped slash arrived in front of Jiraiya with extremely powerful cutting ability and a suffocating aura.

"A crescent-shaped slash? Could that be a new ninjutsu that Xiao Ye developed?"

Jiraiya pondered to himself. Over the past three years, he had learned a great deal and had some understanding of Xuan Ye. He was also well aware of Jiraiya's research into new ninjutsu, though it seemed he hadn't succeeded.

However, the appearance of this new ninjutsu made Jiraiya realize that Xuan Ye's research on the new ninjutsu must have been successful, and its power was dozens of times greater than the previous ninjutsu.

"It seems that this crescent-shaped slash is not to be trifled with! The first few earthen walls will not be able to stop it, but fortunately I was prepared in advance and created two Shadow Clones. I can use the two of them to hold it off for a while, giving me time to dodge."

Jiraiya's hand Hand Seals became faster and faster because he knew there wasn't much time left for her to slowly Hand Seals. He had to speed things up, otherwise the crescent-shaped slash would instantly reach him again.

A second later, Jiraiya was ready. He stopped forming hand Hand Seals and finished circulating his chakra. Now he was waiting for the crescent-shaped slash to come.

"Bang!"

Dust flew up instantly.

Ahead, the crescent-shaped slash arrived in an instant, reaching the first earthen wall. However, the earthen wall had no effect as expected, failing to slow down the crescent-shaped slash in the slightest. Faced with the deathly cut, the earthen wall was like a fragile piece of paper, breaking instantly.

The second, third, and fourth earthen walls all vanished instantly. They could not stop the crescent-shaped slash and could only fall at its feet in an instant.

Upon seeing this, Jiraiya was extremely shocked. He had already assessed the power of the crescent-shaped slash, but he had underestimated it; its power far exceeded his assessment.

It seems there's no way to fight it head-on; the only option is to dodge while the Shadow Clone is resisting the crescent-shaped slash.

Jiraiya had already made up his mind. He could not withstand the crescent-shaped slash and could only retreat.

Soon, the crescent-shaped slash created by the Death Cut arrived instantly. It broke through all the earthen walls in front of it and came to Jiraiya's front, wanting to cut the person in front of him in half at an extremely fast speed, so as to demonstrate its power and its terrifying cutting ability.

Jiraiya's eyes narrowed as he stared ahead at the crescent-shaped slash rapidly approaching him. He unleashed the ninjutsu he had prepared.

"Whoosh!"

The two Shadow Clone beside Jiraiya went to meet him first. Each of the Shadow Clone held a round ball that was constantly spinning in their hands. However, this time it was not Rasengan. It was Great Ball Rasengan that was several times more powerful than Rasengan. Not only was its power increased, but its size was also several times that of a regular Rasengan.

After Jiraiya sent two Shadow Clones to meet them, he didn't stand still either, but instantly unleashed the ninjutsu he had prepared.

Fire Release: Super Great Flame Bullet!

Instantly, Jiraiya spat out a large ball of flame from his mouth. This flame was extremely hot and incredibly powerful, but it still seemed somewhat inadequate in the face of that crescent-shaped slash.

Soon, Jiraiya's two Shadow Clone Great Ball Rasengan, met the crescent-shaped slash head-on.

However, this was of no use. The Great Ball Rasengan unleashed by the two Shadow Clones were still extremely vulnerable in the face of that crescent-shaped slash. They were instantly cut in half by the crescent-shaped slash created by Wind Release: Death Cut. The Great Ball Rasengan also dissipated into the world because their interiors were cut open.

The disappearance of the two Shadow Clones and the Great Ball Rasengan in their hands happened in the blink of an eye. Jiraiya's last ninjutsu was the Fire Release: Super Great Flame Bullet!

This was Jiraiya's last line of defense; he could only rely on this one ninjutsu to buy himself time to dodge the crescent-shaped slash.
